Who Are Health TAPESTRY Clients

Health TAPESTRY is identifying people at risk before they need invasive and expensive interventions, like going to a hospital. We work with these people and their communities to help them be healthier, where they live, for longer.

Most Health TAPESTRY clients are older adults, since they are more likely than most people to have one or more chronic health conditions. They tend to use the health care system more and they are likely to benefit from working with Health TAPESTRY.

Health TAPESTRY is also working with people with complex medical needs, frequent users of the health system, people recently discharged from hospital, homebound frail elderly people and other groups that may benefit from our approach.
